Already, 2 years of discussions have happened on Sotonians but no one is chronicling the key aspects and outcomes to those discussions, so that future generations can learn from the mistakes of the past.

This video is probably as good a place to start as any:

I will recall the important story of when that guy who’s name I forget joined the board and started talking about football and stuff and he seemed alright and I got the vibe that people thought he was sound as well and then all of a sudden he casually drops into 2 or 3 conversations that he was a bit of a monarchist and I was all internally like woah stop there you fucking freak, you can fuck right off right now mush and it was as though he had heard my inner most desires for he shortly thereafter ceased posting. It may have been because Pap called him a knee bender, but I don’t recall. This is a good example of why we should chronicle things when they are still fresh in the memory.

Then there was the time that @chertsey-saint asked for advice on weather he should send his kids to get bummed by a priest or a vicar or something even though he wasn’t religious. He just thought it was a good idea because he respects the values of their culture. And Barry was like yeah good idea, then later in another conversation Chertsey accused Barry shortly after the birth of his new child, of being a paedophile and then made out that it’s no big deal. That guy was nuts right!?!

So right maybe we’ll have to start off with the stuff we forgot to chronicle at the time, do the best that we can until we get up to the present day and then start doing a proper chronicling job. Well actually we may as well do both in parallel. Why not. I’ll pop back when it’s done. Cheers.

I recall the time last season just before the cup final when @saintbletch created a thread with an intriguing and strange name which I do not recall. As the opening post he wrote something like “this is for later”. Strangely, no one posted on that thread and it dropped into oblivion. Did later ever come? What was saintbletch’s dark purpose for that thread? Good topic of research for the chronicles?
